Andhra Pradesh Forms Task Force for Scrub Typhus

The leader of Andhra Pradesh, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, has created a special team of doctors from all over the world to help stop a sickness called scrub typhus.

This team will visit different places and give advice on how to prevent the sickness.

The officials said that even though there have been many cases of scrub typhus, no one has died just from this sickness.

They also said that other sicknesses like dengue and malaria are happening less this year because of better cleanliness and more testing.

The leader wants to make sure that all sicknesses are brought down to zero with the help of different departments working together.
